Isle Be There

Isle Be There: Ionian Islands

Surrounded by the Ionian Sea, you're not exactly short of places to go swimming in Zakynthos, but a villa with a private pool is just too good an opportunity to pass — especially when it's among such beautiful surroundings as this. Overlooked by a rocky hill, we can envision many an afternoon of splashing about in its refreshing waters, drying off naturally on one of the loungers and repeating ad infinitum. When you want a break from the heat, retire to the covered balcony or sprawl out on the living room sofa and enjoy the breeze coming in from the open French door. It's very easy to do nothing but watch the days go by at a satisfyingly slow pace, but if you want a reminder of what the outside world looks like at any point, the seaside resorts of Alikes and Alikanas can be reached by car in under ten minutes.

Home truths:
*Cots can be provided by the host if necessary
*The villa is located next to a road and you will be able to hear some traffic noise
*There's parking space available at the property
